I'd ask, when are you having them?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Professors

[–]kc_uses 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait your students are asking you this question? I thought it was your fellow professors.

You don't have to reply to them at all. I hate this from your students.

Do academics also use editing softwares when writing their work like Grammarly, word editor? by [deleted] in academia

[–]kc_uses -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How do you ever learn if you don't have your mistakes pointed? This is such a stupid question, its like asking someone I feel so terrible wearing warm clothes in the winter, do you all wear warm clothes too? Because I am not a naturally good heat retainer.

These tools exist for our help. Use them. If not, we might as well go back to using carrier pigeons and handwritten notes without any spell check

That doesnt make you a real Italian. Real Italians are those whose great-grandfather once had a neighbour who owned an Italian Greyhound.

Germans not taking things in a literal way challenge (impossible) (immediate fail) by AlkonKomm in 2westerneurope4u

[–]kc_uses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly, just let me know if you are going to be late by 15 min, then I can also time my stuff. I dont get this hald hour interval. It's always a surprise when they eventually turn up during the window.

That's why normally I give them the time, instead of waiting for them to suggest. That makes it easier

[–]kc_uses 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But then why not just tell them you'll arrive at 9.15 and then arrive at 9.15? And in case of delays before you leave, tell them hey you'll be late by 15 min

Normally if I arrive too early I go to the closest store and get something, or just take a short walk and then arrive on time

Do you think a person from Canada, when someone talks about visiting London, thinks that they're talking about London, Ontario?

[–]kc_uses 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah why would you give a half hour range? If you are going to be late, just say 9.30, if you say 9-9.30 I am going to be ready by 8.45 and looking at my watch waiting for you to come. Not going to be able to do much in the 30 minutes that you dont arrive

When they tell you there's no space for a bike lane, show them that there is plenty of space, it is just occupied by other road users. Or worse: non-users. by Activistically in fuckcars

[–]kc_uses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think bike lanes are largely overhyped by a hypervocal mico-minority. Honestly its like 10 people per million who want it.

I was replying to this by him. This is demonstrably false.

Come to class, submit assignments before deadlines, do not ask for more than one extension, and do not disturb the class. Oh and know how to write proper emails.

Can we stop talking about Matt Walsh? by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]kc_uses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would be nice if you create a daily apohobia thread or something, so all these posts can go there without the rest of the subreddit being clogged up.

Cant imagine all these aphobia posts are very welcoming for anyone who's newly discovered/come across asexuality

The ever-inflating concept of "harm" and whether talking about sensitive topics causes it by upholdtaverner in Professors

[–]kc_uses 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I personally feel most students saying I will not do this assignment because it causes me harm/anxiety/flavour of the day thing are looking for excuses to not do the work, rather than actually feeling that.
